C-AAE: Compressively Anonymizing Autoencoders for Privacy-Preserving Activity Recognition in Healthcare Sensor Streams

Wearable accelerometers and gyroscopes encode fine-grained behavioural signatures that can be exploited to re-identify users, making privacy protection essential for healthcare applications. We introduce C-AAE, a compressive anonymizing autoencoder that marries an Anonymizing AutoEncoder AAE with...
